Ten years ago, the R&D capacity of independent brand car companies was almost zero. Relying on the assistance of joint venture car companies, they barely maintained their upgrades. They used other people’s engines and transmissions to imitate other people’s chassis to develop their own vehicles. Nowadays, independent brands have risen strongly. Engines, transmissions, and chassis systems are all independently developed by themselves. It is even said that domestic vehicles have developed their own platform architecture. The progress of domestic vehicles is obvious to all.
Chery has always acted as the technical backbone of China's independent brand field. It is known as the car brand with the deepest technical background and strongest product strength. Do you know the 1.6T engine independently developed by Chery? The maximum torque of the engine is up to 290Nm, the maximum power is 145kw, and the power parameters are very good. Many joint venture brand cars can’t compare.
Chery engine review：Chery has also developed high-end SUVs such as Tiggo 7, Tiggo 8, and Tiggo 8Plus. This engine is widely praised by Chinese consumers. Surprisingly, Chery only matched the engine to the SUV field, never used it on a car, and even saw no signs of it.
Chery lays out SUV market
Throughout the development history of Chery Automobile, it is not difficult to see that Chery has an image of “working hard, working hard, and specializing in technology” in the minds of car owners. Although Chery Automobile's sales are acceptable, it does not reach the best-selling level, which also leads to Chery has always been in a tepid state, and it can be said to be a typical representative of "applauding but not popular".
In recent years, domestic auto brands have developed rapidly, but the rise of domestic vehicles started from SUVs. With the sales of Haval H6, Geely Boyue, Changan CS75 and other models, Chery is also very greedy. What should I do?
Chery has also embarked on the development of the SUV field. After all, the favorite model of Chinese consumers is the SUV. SUV has a large space, a high center of gravity, and a wide field of vision. This is the first choice for family cars. This is also the main reason why Chery's 1.6T engine is the first to be matched to SUV models.
The transmission matched with Chery's 1.6T high-power engine is a seven-speed wet dual-clutch transmission developed by Chery itself.
We all know that due to heat dissipation, the performance of the dual-clutch transmission is not very stable, and clutch overheating, gear shift frustration, abnormal transmission noise, etc. occur from time to time. Therefore, Chery has developed a wet dual-clutch transmission for its own vehicles.
The wet dual-clutch transmission has relatively stable performance and can carry a large torque, has a fast shifting speed, and has an excellent sense of driving rhythm. It has a good match with the 1.6T engine.
In addition to the DCT transmission, Chery also has Wanliyang's CVT transmission, but the torque carrying capacity of this transmission is limited. After all, everyone knows that the CVT transmission is prone to slipping. If the matching engine torque is too large, the transmission is prone to problems. , Resulting in poor durability and poor stability. Therefore, Chery's 1.6T engine can only match the dual-clutch transmission, and it is still wet.
Chery's car field is declining
Chery’s product positioning has been very clear. It is exclusively for the SUV car market. In the car field, only the Arrizo 5 low-end series models and 100,000-class family cars are retained.
This vehicle has a strong benefit to the people, is economical, and is easy to drive. The power system matching this vehicle is 1.5LCVT. If the 1.6T7DCT power system is forcibly used, it will undoubtedly increase the cost of the vehicle. The competitiveness of Chery's low-end cars has declined.
Perhaps if Chery develops high-end cars, such as a high-end car brand-Xingtu, and launches related B-class cars, I believe that Chery will match it with a 1.6T engine, a good horse with a good saddle, such an excellent platform, it will definitely be Match the super power system.
But if it is only the Chery series, perhaps only when Chery Arrizo 9 is launched later, Chery will match it with a 1.6T engine.
to sum up
Chery 1.6T engine has excellent power parameters and outstanding performance. It can be regarded as a high-end power system. Chery will only match this engine in mid-to-high-end models.
However, China’s self-owned sedans have always focused on the low-end segment, and high-end sedans have been dominated by joint ventures. Therefore, Chery can only use this engine in mid-to-high-end SUV models. If Chery has plans to develop mid-to-high-end sedans, the 1.6T engine will Become the first choice.
Monthly expansion: The gap between actual measurement and official announcement is so big, Chery 2.0T engine can be the strongest independent
If you want to say that Chery's propaganda department is eating dry food, it really is not wronging them.
Chery 4.0 generation Kunpeng power 2.0T engine measured:
Official calibration 254ps 390Nm,
The measured data is 253.83ps 448.06Nm.
Connected to the external computer to explore the potential of the engine, it can still excavate 26.90ps 41.17Nm, and finally reach 280.73ps 489.23Nm.
Zero Hundred Accelerated Test:
The fastest measured by the original factory is 7.78s, and the distance is 123.21 meters.
After connecting the external computer, the torque is too high. After many attempts, the tires will still slip at the start. The final result is 7.59s and the distance is 119.22 meters.
is BMW, Benz, Audi, but that's all.
The above data was compiled by worrying netizens, and they have not been advertised by the manufacturer. Compared with Ann, 100 can't be written as 200. Chery should learn more in this respect.
Consumers like to listen to good things. Can you tell the truth? Can you tell the truth?
Don’t you know that honest people are the ones who suffer these years!
Chery, let’s have a snack!
